To
me, it's worth the price of admission just to gawk at the incredibly
well crafted costumes made for these productions.

The
plays are held in three different theaters, one a unique open air
Elizabethan Stage patterned on London's 1599 Fortune Theatre, the
impressive Angus Bowmer Theatre which can seat up to 600, and the
more intimate state-of-the-art New Theatre.
